Construction of six new tennis courts is beginning. The City of Libby has leased what was a beautiful section of land by the Montana Athletic Club to U Serve Libby, another 501C3 non-profit corporation, with an educational and charitable goal to be the acquisition, operation and control of a sports facility, including tennis courts and courts for other sports, for use by school age children and adults. The City and Lincoln County will provide an estimated $56,000 in-kind construction work for the project. The Libby Public School District will help with maintenance.
Other funding will come from grants and solicitation of donations from businesses and individuals. $31,145 has been committed through donations, pledges and fundraising activities with another $109,855 still needed, according to U-Serve. _____________________________________ Story by KLCB 1230 AM Libby News Radio, www.todaysbestcountryonline.com
